Characters and Locations
Wait, NOW we are also covering Characters and locations? Tucayo (Talk)
Fanon
I have a question that i am interested with... Can we make a subdomain for Fanon? This would make Pikmin Fanon not as lonely. Peanut64
- Wait, are you talking on the wiki or in niwa over all? Tacopill 01:03, 30 October 2010 (UTC).
Television Shows
It seems kind of backwards that NIWA would cover pop culture references but not TV shows. Isn't TV part of pop culture anyway? Of course NIWA wouldn't need an article for each episode and every minor detail, but an article that gives an overview of the series and some articles for the main characters seem in line. That's how I see it at least. --Vince220 18:54, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
- TV shows are, but there are tv shows devoted to a specific franchise that don't belong on this wiki. "Pop culture" on the other hand,isn't. Tacopill 03:37, 29 November 2010 (UTC).
- ie. Captain N would go here, since it's a franchise crossover thing. The Super Mario Super Show probably would as well, in some small capacity, since it included both Mario and Zelda cartoons. The cartoons that were pure Mario would only get stubs though, redirecting visitors to Super Mario Wiki. Archaic 22:54, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
Things not by Nintendo
I have a question. Even if the topic is related to Nintendo (as in notable to Nintendo) but not endorsed by Nintendo though it has had significant impact on Nintendo (e.g. the early rivalry between Nintendo and Sega through "propaganda wars"), is it not cover-able? --75.126.149.175 13:28, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
- That is coverable, because it was or is influenced by Nintendo or Nintendo influenced it. Tacopill (Talk) 19:46, 10 December 2010 (UTC).
- Thanks for the quick response! --75.126.149.175 21:22, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
- No problem. Out of curiosity, is there a reason you aren't logged in when you edit? Tacopill (Talk) 21:31, 10 December 2010 (UTC).
- No, none in particular other than not having an account yet. I'm sorry if anonymous edits here are discouraged (on an unrelated note this is Torchickens from the niwanetwork forums). --75.126.149.175 21:46, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

- Wait, this is really strange. User contributions suggests that I have made numerous edits but I only recall making edits from 21:22 and up (GMT+0) today. How did this happen? --Torchickens 22:21, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
- It's like every anonymous user here is given the same IP address. My IP address is not 75.126.149.175, it is 81.103.186.25. --Torchickens 22:35, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
- It's a side effect of the servers. Niwanetwork.org and N-Wiki are hosted on Bulbagarden server 1. The IP that's showing for all the anonymous users would be the IP of the load balancer that directs traffic between Bulbagarden servers 1 through 5. I'm fairly sure we fixed that problem over on Bulbapedia, not sure why it didn't carry on over here. Must've forgotten to make some file edit or something. Will investigate it.

Japanese or English?
Well, this is sorta weird but for Dōbutsu no Mori (The japanese game on the N64) should I call it Dōbutsu no Mori or Animal Forest it's meaning. Please get back to me as soon as possible!--クマトラ 23:48, 22 December 2010 (UTC)Kumatora (Oh and the only reason I started using the japanese characters that spell Kumatora is I think it looks cooler than in regular writing!)
- This is just my personal opinion, but i would go with whatever is official.
- If there is an official English name, go with that.
- If there's a official Translation, go with that.
- As much as i would like to have it in Japanese, most of our target audience can't type in it. Tacopill (Talk) 00:56, 23 December 2010 (UTC). Tacopill (Talk) 00:56, 23 December 2010 (UTC).
